Updates the outcome information in a result object for later re-estimation

update_outcome is a function that updates information about the outcome in the model_specification object within a result object.

update_outcome(
  obj,
  new_name = NULL,
  new_formula = NULL,
  new_estimator = NULL,
  drop = FALSE
)

Arguments

obj: A result object
new_name: A new variable name
new_formula: A new formula, which can be described as updates to an existing object
new_estimator: A new function used to estimate the conditional probability of treatment
drop: An indicator of whether to drop any outcome model specification. If the input to this argument is TRUE than new_name, new_formula, and new_estimator are ignored

An result object that contains an updated model_specification component.
